Flush disk cache windows 2003




















All was fine but I'm into home recording and I notice that sometimes the computer would hiccup during either recording or playback. I downloaded and ran flushmem. I also unloaded a lot of stuff from my start up folder.

But now I cant run open office from Oracle even though the program is on my computer. It shows up in programs listing and windows explorer. Also I'm missing my windows msconfigin file. All programs downloaded run fine. Do you think I messed up my registry with this flushmem. Any help possible? Thank you. Charlie Niel. For others that turn up here, check the solution to this SO question, as it provides a good alternative "RAMMap" from sysinternals. This sounds like just what I need!

If hFile is a handle to the server end of a named pipe, the function does not return until the client has read all buffered data from the pipe. If the function fails, the return value is zero.

To get extended error information, call GetLastError. The function fails if hFile is a handle to the console output. That is because the console output is not buffered. Typically the WriteFile and WriteFileEx functions write data to an internal buffer that the operating system writes to a disk or communication pipe on a regular basis.

The FlushFileBuffers function writes all the buffered information for a specified file to the device or pipe. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. Jeff Grills Jeff Grills 31 1 1 bronze badge. Each time you want to benchmark, create a new copy of the test data specifying unbuffered mode when creating the new copy this should keep the copy out of read cache, but I haven't tested.

Allocate enough memory that windows has to discard the disk cache ugh! Note that the program flushmem from Sron Sbarnea's answer implements solution 3. Not to mention it could crash stuff. I ran it and Chrome including this very page just disappeared. Fortunately when I ran Chrome, it let me restore my session, so it was just a minor inconvenience; nevertheless, be advised to be safe, you should exit everything before using it which of course makes it a poor solution.
